Electric kiln

Next to the office on the ground floor are the remains of an electric kiln installed in the mid-1950s. It was connected to the mains supply in the adjacent room by cables that still survive attached to the ceiling and doorway.

Churchwarden pipes

Displayed on the top floor in their original wooden box filled with chaff, are a gross of perfectly preserved Churchwarden pipes, delivered probably just before the First World War to Hughes tobacconists, High Street, Stroud but never sold. The box and its contents were purchased for display by the Friends of the Ironbridge Gorge Museum in 1999.

Radio

In the first floor 'time capsule' room there are the remains of a 1940s radio. When interviewing former employees, museum staff were told that the most popular tune the girls enjoyed whilst working immediately after the Second World War was 'Swinging on a Star'. It was the chart-topper of its day.
